Key Chemistry Terms and definitions covered in this textbook
-
acetal
A functional group characterized by two alkoxy (OR) groups connected to the same carbon atom.Acetals can be used as protecting groups for aldehydes or ketones.
-
activity series
A list of metals in order of decreasing ease of oxidation. (Section 4.4)
-
carbonyl group
A CRO bond. carboxylic acid derivative (Sect. 21.6): A compound that is similar in structure to a carboxylic acid (RCOOH) but the OH group of the carboxylic acid has been replaced with a different group, Z, where Z is a heteroatom such as Cl, O, N, etc. Nitriles (R!C#N) are also considered to be carboxylic acid derivatives because they have the same oxidation state as carboxylic acids.
-
Chain length
The number of times the cycle of chain propagation steps repeats in a chain reaction.

-
Stereoselective reaction
A reaction in which one stereoisomer is formed in preference to all others. A stereoselective reaction may be enantioselective or diastereoselective, as the case may be.
